Answer

We can see the graph of x versus t $v_{ave} = 40~km/h$

Work Step by Step

We can see the graph of x versus t We can calculate the average velocity as follows: $v_{ave} = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t} = \frac{80~km}{2~h} = 40~km/h$ Note that the average velocity is the slope of the dotted blue line.
